we go to disney 2x a year. so this time we decided all new restaurants.
so excited.i may change one of mine if my kids wants a pick for a restaurant.
our kids are 15 and 4 and my 18 year may go as well.

dh's picks-

le cellier-dh really wants to go. im down worth a shot.

coral reef- my moms fave, she passed, so were going in her honor.
i feel like its a gamble though, praying the atmosphere makes up for the food.

garden grill- my mom took me here when i was 15 i remember it was pretty cool so id like to do it again for my little one. the whole rotating thing.

shulas- dh has been begging to go here the last 3 vacations.

cinderellas royal table-funny this one is dh's pick. i think he just wants to go because the baby loves the castle much.


my picks if any of them suck i never live it down.

ohana-just heard so many wonderful things, i hope its great.

whispering canyon cafe-heard its a lot of fun, scared about the food. again these have to be great or dh will never let me live it down.


i should add dh doesn't eat pork so i don't want that mean very limited items for him at any choices. thanks
 
Have been to LeCellier and enjoyed it. Had a one year old asleep on me the whole dining experience but loved it. Our server left a bit to be desired but oh well whatever. Havent been to any others but we are going to CRT and Ohana on our next trip. CRT is for our girls...eating in the castle, well I can't think of a better memory for a little girl. I just can't. :)
 
2 of our favs are Ohana and Whispering Canyon.

At both we love not only the atmosphere but the food as well. Infact, if DH doesn't have his skillet from WCC he is cranky! :rotfl2: I don't get the skillet, as the steak is my choice. (used to be a ribeye now it is a new york strip and it is fantastic!!)
So far each trip that steak has ranked up there with being the best (besides Ohana) meal.

As for Ohana...can't do a WDW trip without it. We love it. Both of us are meat eaters, so we enjoy the beef (which I always ask for med/rare, because the skewers are served well done). DH loves the pork and the chicken as well. The wings and then dessert can't be forgotten. Dessert is best on property of any restaurant in my opinion.

So for your list I say you have 2 very good choices!!
 

You have some good picks!

Coral Reef was pretty good--I've enjoyed it the two times we've been. Not the best, but decent for sure.

'Ohana is fantastic. We love it and always do that each trip. You'll love it.

CRT is okay, I think they rush you too much, but the castle is something to see. I'm done with it for now, since Akershus is so much better.

I also really liked Garden Grill. I think you really did a nice job at picking some great places!
 
My opinions: Love sitting by the window at Ohana but the meat is dry.

WCC has only fair food and sometimes no antics

CRT way overpriced but the castle is cool

I am a fan of lecellier but the tables are packed in like sardines. If you don't have claustrophobia the food is good. We have only had one bad service experience here.
 
We, personally, don't like half your selections. But that's one of the great things about Disney, different strokes for different folks. The only way you'll learn if you like a place is to try it for yourself. :thumbsup2
 
If you choose Shula's go to www.restaurant.com and get a discount $25 certificate using the current word TASTY(code for purchases May 9-14) at checkout and save 70% on the purchase - there is no indication it is for a specific value and the great thing is they don't have an expiration date from what I know. I had my last one for 2-3 months before we used it. Sort by zip code 32830 then within 5 miles and Shulas should be on the first page of places (it was this morning). We use this for the House of Blues for when we go. Helps to save a little bit of money. I you want to make sure Shula's still accepts them just call (I have found some places that advertised in the past don't remove their listing). :banana:
 
thanks for the tip i also have tiw im sure they wont also let me use my gc there at the same time as the tiw discount.
